Have you ever lived in a studio apartment?

Question

Right now I live with roommates but I really want to get a place of my own. Its going to be about twice as expensive. Is it worth it? What was your experience? I really want the privacy and want to not have to worry about waking people up and taking over the kitchen. Is it worth that much extra money though?

Answer 1

the one thing that sucks about studio apartments is that you don't have a real bedroom. Its in the same room as the living room, kitchen and dinning room. Its all one big room.  

Answer 2

When I was in college..I lived in a studio apt for 3 years.. It was the old attic apartment in an older estate home and it was great... Granted it was just one big room with a kitchen and bathroom..but no roommates was great ,,especially for studying and entertaining my gf at the time.

If you can get over having a fairly small space I recommend it highly.
